## Deprecating benchmark configs

- Move deprecated entries out of the active master config into [`configs/deprecated/amd-master.yaml`](configs/deprecated/amd-master.yaml) or [`configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml`](configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml), matching the vendor. These are the only deprecated master-config files; do not create separate files per model, scenario, or deprecation.
- For a partial deprecation, archive only the retired scenarios and retain the supported scenarios in the active entry. Preserve archived settings and explanatory comments; do not update historical image pins or runners during archival.
- Keep every archive key unique. If a key already exists with different settings, preserve both versions with a descriptive suffix on the historical key and a comment recording its original config key. Existing colliding 1k1k versions use `-deprecated-1k1k`. Never overwrite an archived version or add duplicate YAML keys.
- Check retirement statements in [`MODELS.md`](MODELS.md) against active configs and script routing in the same PR, and update `MODELS.md` plus `MODELS_zh.md` together. Preserve explicitly documented exceptions and conditional retirement policies; do not treat planned retirement as completed.
- Keep these archives out of active sweep inputs. Follow the existing benchmark-script archival convention, moving retired scripts into the sibling `deprecated/` directory only when no active config still uses them.

## Runner launchers (one file per pool)

- The reusable workflows run `bash ./runners/launch_${RUNNER_NAME%%_*}.sh`. The runner-name prefix before the first underscore is the only routing key, so each self-hosted pool maps to exactly one `runners/launch_<pool>.sh`, and every `runners/launch_*.sh` must be the launcher of a pool listed in [`configs/runners.yaml`](configs/runners.yaml). For example, runner `b200-nscale-slurm_03` runs `runners/launch_b200-nscale-slurm.sh`. See [Stage 4 in `docs/architecture.md`](docs/architecture.md#stage-4-launcher-and-runtime-execution).

**Thursday, August 6, 2026** is the last day for the **Single-turn 8k1k** scenario on **Kimi-K2.5/2.6/2.7-Code** (`kimik2.5`). The scenario is deprecated for these models after that date. Rationale: Kimi-K3 launched on July 27, 2026, so GPU cluster time shifts to the newer frontier model. Combined with the Agentic coding deprecation above, this leaves `kimik2.5` with no active scenario. The model is **fully retired after August 6, 2026**.

**Enacted on 2026-08-07** in [#2527](https://github.com/SemiAnalysisAI/InferenceX/pull/2527): 17 `kimik2.5` config keys were removed from the active master configs and archived under [`configs/deprecated/`](configs/deprecated/) as `nvidia-kimik2.5-8k1k-master.yaml` (10) and `amd-kimik2.5-8k1k-master.yaml` (7), and their 12 benchmark scripts were moved to the sibling `deprecated/` directories. `kimik2.5` now has **no active configuration in any master config** and is fully retired. The same PR archived `kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm`, an agentic-coding key that #2493 left behind in `nvidia-master.yaml` after moving its script to `benchmarks/single_node/agentic/deprecated/`. It is now in `nvidia-kimik2.5-agentic-master.yaml` with its siblings. The SPEED-Bench acceptance-length script `benchmarks/single_node/speedbench/kimik2.5_fp4_b300_vllm.sh` is intentionally kept. Speedbench is driven by `speedbench-al.yml`, not the master configs, matching how #2493 treated MiniMax-M3.

🟣 Maintainers following the new deprecation-audit mandate will trust a false claim: kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm is said to now live in configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml, but that key does not exist anywhere in the repo. Pre-existing (the claim already pointed at a nonexistent nvidia-kimik2.5-agentic-master.yaml before this PR); this diff rewrites the sentence to point at the new consolidated file without checking the entry actually exists there, so the fabricated claim survives the PR's own "deprecation parity audit." Fix: verify every named config key in this paragraph resolves via a real search of the archives before restating its location, and either add the missing entry or correct/remove the sentence.

Why this was flagged

MODELS.md:45 (and the mirrored MODELS_zh.md:45) states kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm was archived by PR #2527 and 'is now in configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml with its siblings'. Repo-wide grep for kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm and for int4-h100 at HEAD finds only these two prose lines, never a YAML key, in configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml, configs/nvidia-master.yaml, or any benchmark script under benchmarks/single_node/agentic/deprecated/. AGENTS.md's new 'Deprecating benchmark configs' section (added by this same diff) tells future agents to check MODELS.md retirement statements against active configs and script routing; a maintainer trusting this line would search for a sibling that was never created. The PR's own 'Deprecation parity audit (2026-09-21)' bullet added just below claims active configs and script locations were checked against enacted retirements, yet this stale, unverifiable claim was carried forward unchanged.

Verification: pre-existing. MODELS.md:45 states the PR archived kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm and "It is now in configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml with its siblings." That key exists nowhere in the repo at HEAD: a repo-wide grep for kimik2.5-int4-h100-vllm and for int4-h100 returns matches only in MODELS.md:45 and MODELS_zh.md:45 (the prose), never a YAML key.

Rationale: `dsv4` carries the largest single-turn footprint in the repository. 45 active config keys use the 8k1k scenario, 32 in `configs/nvidia-master.yaml` and 13 in `configs/amd-master.yaml`, spanning H200, B200, B300, GB200, GB300, MI300X, MI325X, and MI355X across vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, ATOM, Dynamo, and llm-d. That is a large share of every full sweep. AgentX trace replay is the scenario AI labs and the ML community ask about, and DeepSeek-V4-Pro's 19 agentic config keys are the part of `dsv4` that feeds the published North Star Pareto frontier. Retiring the fixed-sequence-length arm frees cluster hours for AgentX and for new frontier models such as Qwen3.8-Flash-Next without reducing what we publish for this model. Single-turn 8k1k stays active for the other models that still list it.

**Enacted on 2026-09-09** in [#2921](https://github.com/SemiAnalysisAI/InferenceX/pull/2921): 46 `dsv4` 8k1k config keys were removed from the active master configs and archived under [`configs/deprecated/`](configs/deprecated/) as `nvidia-dsv4-8k1k-master.yaml` (33) and `amd-dsv4-8k1k-master.yaml` (13), and their 28 benchmark scripts were moved to the sibling `deprecated/` directories (25 under `benchmarks/single_node/fixed_seq_len/`, 3 under `benchmarks/multi_node/`), matching how [#2493](https://github.com/SemiAnalysisAI/InferenceX/pull/2493) and [#2527](https://github.com/SemiAnalysisAI/InferenceX/pull/2527) were carried out. The count is 46 rather than the 45 quoted above because `dsv4-fp4-b200-dynamo-sglang` landed after this notice was written. The 19 agentic-coding keys are untouched: `dsv4` continues to run and publish with agentic coding as its only scenario. The SPEED-Bench acceptance-length scripts for `dsv4` are intentionally kept. Speedbench is driven by `speedbench-al.yml`, not the master configs. The srt-slurm and llm-d recipe YAMLs referenced by the archived multi-node keys stay in place as inert reference data, as #2493 and #2527 left theirs.

**Deprecation parity audit (2026-09-21):** Active master configs and benchmark-script locations match the enacted retirements above and in the support matrix below. GLM-5.1 B200 TileRT remains the documented exception to the earlier GLM-5/5.1 and 1k1k retirements. Conditional A/B baseline retirement remains pending; non-speculative Pareto contributors remain supported. Deprecated configs are consolidated in [`configs/deprecated/amd-master.yaml`](configs/deprecated/amd-master.yaml) and [`configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml`](configs/deprecated/nvidia-master.yaml).

原因：`dsv4` 是本仓库中单轮场景占用最大的模型。当前有 45 个启用的配置项使用 8k1k 场景（`configs/nvidia-master.yaml` 32 个，`configs/amd-master.yaml` 13 个），覆盖 H200、B200、B300、GB200、GB300、MI300X、MI325X 与 MI355X，涉及 vLLM、SGLang、TensorRT-LLM、ATOM、Dynamo 与 llm-d，在每一轮完整 sweep 中占比可观。AgentX 轨迹回放才是 AI 实验室与 ML 社区真正关注的场景，而 DeepSeek-V4-Pro 的 19 个智能体编码配置项正是 `dsv4` 中支撑已发布北极星（North Star）帕累托前沿的部分。下线固定序列长度分支可为 AgentX 以及 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 等新前沿模型腾出集群机时，同时不减少该模型对外发布的内容。对于仍列有该场景的其他模型，单轮 8k1k 保持启用。
